  3. longest surgery?

    14 Hour open radical nephrectomy. This patient threw a clot to the heart half way through and CT had to be called and the chest cracked.

  9. Not sure what to think...

    Nope, this is a very prestigious New England Medical Center. Thanks for all of the support everyone. I think my best bet at this point is just to finish my training and move on.
  10. Not sure what to think...

    We do not count regardless, routine or emergent.
  11. Not sure what to think...

    Thank you for the advice. I definitely think I will be talking to someone from HR soon. I also had another question I wanted to ask but forgot to put into the original post. At this institution they also do not count instruments on open abdominal cas...
  12. Not sure what to think...

    I am a new nurse who has recently just graduated college, and have landed my first nursing job in the Operating Room. I had completed my senior practicum in the OR at another hospital, so I already have a fair amount of knowledge. The hospital I work...
